(5 stars)Marco Massoudihttp://paizo.com/products/btpy85er?Pathfinder-16-Second-Darkness-Chapter-4-Endless-Night2016-10-28T02:32:07Z<p><b>Pathfinder #16—Second Darkness Chapter 4: "Endless Night" (OGL)</b></p><p>GOOD:
<br />
You get to play undercover in a drow city - which is quite detailed in the article in the back and the adventure itself.
<br />
Lots of information on the drow on Golarion.
<br />
The Fleshwarp article.
<br />
The art is incredibly evocative.
<br />
$5 only!</p>
<p>BAD:
<br />
This is written for the 3.5 rules.</p>
<p>UGLY:
<br />
Still lots in stock, so buy one! ;-)</p>
<p>If you are looking for details on the drow, this is your book, no matter if you need them as PCs, NPCs, or enemies. Also the fact that each noble house has a different Demon Lord (which are all detailed in AP book #18) as a patron is awesome.
<br />
Zirnakaynin is a very different setting from Menzoberranzan and can´t be as detailed in a 10 page article, but it really gets the creative juices flowing.
<br />
Buy the "Second Darkness Map Folio" for $3 with this, it has a giant full color map of the drow city (which extends over 3 areas) and you are ready to go!</p><p><b>Pathfinder #16—Second Darkness Chapter 4: "Endless Night" (OGL)</b></p><p>GOOD:

É uma aventura diferente, voltada a politicagem realizada pelos personagens, algo bastante raro no mundo do D&amp;D. Pois artigos muito bons sobre os drows de Golarion e os monstros da edição bastante variados e criativos. A set piece é um tanto genérica, mas é um bom exemplo de como usar doenças em aventuras de nível alto e até mesmo a ficção estabelece a introdução dos povo-serpente (serpent-folk) em Golarion já que não haverão Yuan-Tis. Contudo não posso deixa mais claro que isso, de todas as aventuras que fazem parte das adventure paths, essa é a que mais pode acabar se tornando injogável com um grupo que não tenha maturidade, ela provoca mesmo o ego dos jogadores e isso pode gerar muitos problemas.</p><p><b>Pathfinder #16—Second Darkness Chapter 4: "Endless Night" (OGL)</b></p><p>Apesar dos problemas e da aventura ser roteirizada como uma peça de teatro, é uma edição que vale a pena ter.

Is the big bad male or female? The pictures say one thing, but the text states and implies both. What is the name if the big bad's tower? It's called one thing in the description of the estate and then referred to as something else for the rest of the adventure. Then there's poorly written sentences, jumbled words, doubled words, and by the end of it I found that I was very distracted by all the errors.</p>
<p>The concept is very unique and original and is a very different take on the infiltration scenario. Truly cool.</p>
<p>Overall, I don't see why the drow had to be changed. Much of what's been explained in PF about drow just doesn't make much sense because there's no firm framework to force it to be. This was one thing Paizo didn't need to reinvent to "own."</p><p><b>Pathfinder #16—Second Darkness Chapter 4: "Endless Night" (OGL)</b></p><p>I've read Rise of the Runelords, Crimson Throne, Legacy of Fire, Kingmaker, Serpent's Skull, and what's been released so far for Carrion Crown, and this book is by far the worst I've read (possibly one of the worse adventures I've read in more than 30 years of gaming) when it comes to continuity, grammar, and typography errors.

The adventure is very well done. While it provides a path for the players to follow it allows improvisation on the DM's part to go off on wild new tangents, if you so desire.I greatly recommend this adventure.</p>
<p>As a side note, it also works well as a stand-alone adventure. It would just require a few minor alterations to box text.</p><p><b>Pathfinder #16—Second Darkness Chapter 4: "Endless Night" (OGL)</b></p><p>This is one of my favorite Pathfinders so far.
